Valentines for Vets 2006
Isn't Valentines Day a wonderful way to make a fuss
And let Veterans know that we will never forget what they have done for us...
At VAC we're celebrating our 10th year of participation in the Valentines for Vets program and we would like you to become involved. By creating a hand-made message, you can help bring joy to a Canadian Veteran. Last year we had a wonderful response and received an overwhelming amount of valentines from students, organizations and individuals all across Canada.
The Valentines for Vets program was started in 1989 by the late Ann Landers. VAC became involved with the program in 1996 and we have been receiving and distributing valentines to Veterans in care facilities across the country ever since. Just last year, VAC was able to bring smiles to over 4,000 Veterans' faces.
Do not hesitate to show Veterans you care. Your message lets Veterans know that you appreciate and respect all of their sacrifices. Please send your valentines by January 15, 2006 to:
